Other trainings
(5) Follow-up training (for groups that already had a prior Standard Training) Handouts: please request the handouts by email from info@seekingsafety.org.
Note: a follow-up training is typically conducted several months after a standard training. During that time, those who attended the standard training have had the opportunity to try out Seeking Safety in their clinical work. To help participants make the most of the follow-up training it is suggested (but not required) to ask them to prepare the following, or a subset of these: (1) Bring a list of any clinical dilemmas, case scenarios, and positive/negative feedback about how their work using Seeking Safety thus far. (2) Fill out the Seeking Safety feedback form (which is provided both in the final chapter of the book). (3) Read the articles Training Clinicians in Seeking Safety and Implementing Seeking Safety (both can be downloaded from the "articles" section of this website).
(6) Trauma-informed training (on trauma/PTSD only; no coverage of addiction or Seeking Safety) Handouts: please request the handouts by email from info@seekingsafety.org.
Important note about all handouts 1) None of the handouts include a copy of the powerpoint slides. However, a modified version can be obtained if you request it by email (info@seekingsafety.org) and ask for "modified slides." This document is more than 10 pages, so please keep that in mind. Also, it can only be distributed to attendees of your training in hard copy form (it cannot be distributed electronically nor posted to the web). Please be sure to request these in advance as they cannot be sent after the training. Thanks for your understanding. 2) The basic handouts above are more than 20 pages. If you want to shorten them, please email info@seekingsafety.org for ideas on reducing the page length.
If you would like to organize your own training or would like information on rates, please contact Lisa Najavits. Some possibilities:
Consultation of various types are available. Typical consultations are:
If you are interested in consultation, please email info@seekingsafety.org and provide your contact information and a basic description of what you have in mind. We will contact you to discuss options.
